One random postcode and a story you probably haven't heard before. Today, producer Polly Weston is sent to a postcode in Northumberland. It's a very rural postcode, of just under ten square miles of countryside around the village of Longframlington, north of Morpeth. A recent planning application for the expansion of a falcon breeding facility leads her into the extraordinary world of falcon breeding, and the story of the thousands of birds being bred across the UK for the new sport of falcon racing in the Middle East. Produced and Presented in Bristol by Polly Weston Editor: Chris Ledgard Mixed by Caitlin Gazeley
